Wheat Yield Boosted Through Fertilization in Indiana
Purdue University researchers report 1947 tests across 18 Indiana counties show fertilizer increases in wheat yields. Yields rose seven bushels per acre at 150–200 pounds per acre of 0-12-12 and nine and a half bushels at 300–400 pounds. For upland soils, 165 pounds raised five to seven bushels. 300–350 pounds of 3-12-12 is recommended for most upland soils.

Internal Parasites Loot Farmers of Huge Toll
Internal parasites steal about 125 million dollars from the US livestock industry yearly. Hidden thieves cause diseased animals higher feed use and lower market prices while reducing young stock. Control exists using agents like phenothiazine and carbon tetrachloride with veterinary guidance.
Spoilage of Stored Grain Depends on Bin Condition
The USDA says grain stored in farm-type bins of 1 000 to 3 000 bushels can deteriorate minimally if kept dry cool clean and insect free. For infestation control fumigation is chiefly relied upon. Shelled corn stored for years shows losses under 1 percent in official reports.
